How are you?
Posted by Gina under ponderings
It amazes me how easily we throw around the word “good”. I have had many a conversation as follows:
“How are you?”
“Good. You?”
“Good.”
“Good!”
“Good.”
From there we part ways, without ever really knowing the joys, struggles, and other intricacies of the word “Good” (which isn’t even proper grammar to begin with!) The word itself lacks depth and meaning… it has become an easy reply and an escape from real conversation. Granted, many times there isn’t enough time for a real conversation… but why not set aside time?
It is a question I am slowly starting to address in my own life…
So really, how are you?

Well, today I am actually quite fabulous. But maybe you weren’t asking about my day. How am I really? I feel more blessed than I ever have in my life by a fabulous God that loves and cares for me day in and day out. My friends are wonderful. I miss other friends. I wish I could come out and tell some people things that could be quite frustrating. aaand school is stressing me out. Is that what you wanted?
